COMBINED STATEMENT

of the Air Ministry and the Reichluftfahrtministerium

The A.M. and the RLM have published the procedures contained in this

document based on proven, tested, and approved aircraft operations.

Pilots shall not deviate from these procedures. Non-compliance with the

published procedures could result in below-standard performance,

increased maintenance requirements, and possible disciplinary action

should aircraft damage occur as a result of non-comliance.

It has come to our attention that various squadrons and individuals are

creating alternate procedures covering all phases of flight. It must be

noted, that while these individuals may be considered "aces" or

"experten", these procedures have not been tested nor approved by

proper channels nor are the authors trained in the proper protocols for

procedure generation.

The use of these procedures by R.A.F. or Luftwaffe personnel should be

considered "use at risk." Additionally, though anecdotal evidence may

suggest that these "unauthorized" procedures are more effective, they

are not approved for use by the A.M. or RLM. Using these unauthorized

procedures could result in damage to one's own aircraft and could

possibly lead to Trial by Courts Martial.

Cliffs of Dover: Aircraft Operations Checklists - OPGvSAPINST 3710.1BTitle

This document was created in MS Excel. For the aircraft procedures, I mostly converted the narrative style

and format of the source manual into a checklist format. I tried to keep original spellings and word usage

where appropriate and to provide some basic translation for German terms. All other sections were just

crammed into the available space.

A Note from Flea: Please let us all remember that we are playing a game for entertainment.

Seventy-one years ago, young men took to the skies to fight for their homelands and brothers in arms, lifting

off not knowing if they would live to see the sun set. Too many did not.

They flew because it was their duty; let us fly to honor them. Semper Fidelis.

Extra Special

ThanksTo Oleg and Ilya for their hard work over the years. Keep at it boys, we ain't home yet.

These procedures are derived from the actual aircraft Pilot's Notes and Handbuchs and may not represent

the optimum procedures for game play. Some conditions, controls, or activities included in the checklists

may not be available as part of the Cliffs of Dover game. Additionally, ammunition and weapons data were

derived from historical references, but I have attempted to incorporate Cliffs of Dover usage into this

publication.

DISCLAIMER: This is not intended to be a postgraduate research project. There are errors in this document either through

poor or incomplete research, poor, incomplete or misleading references, bad math skills, and pure laziness. I still think

everything presented is pretty darn close to accurate. However, I realize that what is presented here may differ from how

things are modelled in game.

Oh, and this document is not for use in actually flying Real Life (TM) airplanes.

For comments, recommendations and encouraging words:

Fearlessfrog, Freycinet, Senseispcc, Ajay, Ataros, fireship4, White Owl, Blackdog_kt, EinsteinEP's wife (for

translation), many unnamed others, and the 2GvSAP squad.

I would also like to thank the producers, my agent, and, of course, the Academy for making this all possible.

You like me, you really like me!

These checklists were originally developed for my (2GvSAP Flea) own personal use and for use by the Il2-

based 2GvSAP online squadron for Il2: Cliffs of Dover. They are available for the entire Il2: COD community.

This document includes data for all player pilotable aircraft (except Italian), but does not include detailed

procedures for some of the larger types. Come visit us at www.2gvsap.org or post on our forums at

www.2gvsap.org/phpbb3/

The sources for the data in the checklists were the historical Pilot's Notes, Aircraft Handbuchs, and other

historical manuals. Many of those documents are available at the websites listed below. Please visit these

sites for an enormous amount of WW2 related information. And please hit the tip jar where appropriate.

TWO TWO

Upon Airstart, the pilot must quickly set engine controls for proper flight. Failure to do so in a timely manner

WILL result in engine or cooling system damage. Recommend "Cruise" for initial settings.

PRE-COMBAT CHECKSPre-combat checks are conducted prior to enterring the expected combat area. These checks should be completed

BEFORE any anticipated contact with enemy aircraft. Remember SETG-6 .

PREPARATION FOR COMBAT

Combat preparations are conducted upon contact or sighting of unidentified or enemy aircraft. These actions are to

prepare the aircraft for combat. Though every situation is unique, these actions will prepare you for most

encounters. Remember CRAFTS

PROPELLERS IN CLIFFS OF DOVERPropeller Pitch Terminology

Fine Coarse Feathered

Propeller Types Definition Example

Flat / Low High Feathered

LuftwaffeStartstellung Reisestellung Segelstellung

Luftwaffe(Start Position) (Cruise Position) (Sail Position)

Propeller Types

Fixed Pitch (FP) Propeller Pitch Angle is fixed and cannot be changed. Tigermoth

Variable Pitch (VP)

Propeller Pitch Angle may be changed by the pilot in flight. May

be fully variable or limited to a defined set of positions.

Susceptible to overspeed/overrev.

Hurricane DH5-20, Spitfire

MkIa, Bf 109E-3

Constant Speed (CS)

Variable Pitch Propeller governed by a Constant Speed Unit

(CSU). Governor maintains a commanded RPM and prevents

propeller overspeed/overrev.

Hurricane Rotol, Spitfire MkII,

Blenheim MkIV

Luftschauben

Verstellautomatik (LV)

Propeller with an automatic pitch changing device that prevents

overrevs. Additionally, every throttle position has a corresponding

RPM that is maintained within narrow limits by the automatic

device. May be switched off.

Bf 109E-4, 109E-4/B

VDM Automatik (Luftwaffe) LV

(electric)

The LV propeller electrically provides a pitch setting for every throttle position to maintain a given

RPM thus coupling throttle and pitch (boost and RPM) to provide optimum performance.

VDM (Luftwaffe) VP (electric)

The VDM propeller functions as a fully adjustable variable pitch prop. The

"schalter für verstellschraube drehzahl" (switch for adjusting RPM) adjusts the pitch angle (from

Startstellung to Reisestellung) of the airscrew. Adjusting the switch "größer" will increase RPMs by

decreasing the pitch angle. Adjusting the lever "kleiner" will decrease RPMs by increasing the

pitch angle. Placing the switch in the "segelstllg" position will feather the airscrew.

Propeller Operations

Propeller Operation

De Havilland 5-20 (RAF) VP

(hydraulic)

The DH 5-20 VP propeller functions as a pilot selectable two pitch prop. Pitch Ranges from 5o

(Fully Fine) to 20o

(Fully Coarse). Moving the Propeller Pitch Control selects the pitch angle (fine or

coarse). Fine Pitch will result in higher RPMs and Coarse Pitch will result in lower RPMs for a given

throttle setting.

Rotol (RAF) CS (hydraulic)

The Rotol is a VP prop with a CSU. The CSU governor provides for 35o of pitch change and will

automatically adjust the pitch angle to maintain a commanded RPM. This will prevent overspeed

until the CSU unit hits the "Full Coarse" stops at which point overspeed becomes possible. The

Propeller Pitch Control commands the governor to maintain a constant RPM. "Fully Fine"

commands "maximum RPM". Retarding the Pitch Control commands a lower RPM setting. "Fully

Coarse" commands "Positive Coarse Lock" at which point the prop will function as a FP prop in the

"Fully Coarse" position.

Note for Cliffs of Dover: For RAF Aircraft, commanding Pitch Increase or Pitch Decrease actually Increases or Decreases

RPM. For Luftwaffe Aircraft, commanding Pitch Increase or Pitch Decrease actually increases or decreases pitch. Pitch 10,

Pitch 20, etc will only work for RAF Aircraft with a moveable lever. Pitch 10, Pitch 20, etc will not work for Luftwaffe Aircraft

with Electrical Pitch Adjustment Switches.

Luftschraube

Stellungsanzeige

The Propeller Position Indicator is a clock mechanism used to indicate the pitch of the propeller.

Mixture Lever in rear cockpit has 2 operating positions only: RICH and WEAK. The mixture should

be set to RICH at all times under 5000 feet. Above 5000 feet, mixture ajustment should not cause

a drop in RPM.

ENGINES IN CLIFFS OF DOVERMixture Control

Engine Operation

Merlin II - XII

Mixture Lever has 2 operating positions only: RICH (NORMAL) and WEAK. An interlocking

arrangement returns the mixture control to RICH when the throttle is closed. Note: Mixture

Control moves AFT for RICH and FORWARD for WEAK.

Mercury XVSingle Mixture Lever has 2 operating positions only: NORMAL and WEAK. Mixture returns

automatically to NORMAL when throttle is closed or opened beyond the CRUISING gate.

DB 601 A - A1The DB 601 Series engines are Direct Fuel Injection engines and do not have a pilot selectable

mixture control.

In other words, I haven't written this section yet.

Jumo 211 B/DThe Jumo 211 B/D Series engines are Direct Fuel Injection engines and do not have a pilot

selectable mixture control.

Throttle Control

Engine Operation

Moving the lever increases the coffee flow so the hamsters run faster

increasing the speed of the big fan in front that frightens the air

molecules out of the way so that the airplane moves forward. Or

something like that.

Overboost Note

The Boost Control Cut-Out enables higher boost pressures. The use, in an

emergency, of this high boost pressure is a definite overload condition on the

engine and therefore all occasions on which it is essential to make use of this

+12lb./sq.in. must be reported by the pilot and recorded in the engine log book so

that the engineer officer may be able to assess the reduction in life between

overhauls and the need for special inspections.

Begin Use @ 4000 m

Min Pressure= 10 kg/cm2


Luftschrauben Verstellautomatik Operation

To assist the pilot an automatic airscrew pitch changing device has been introduced. This ensures, without intervention by the pilot,

that the maximum revs are not exceeded and the engine is not subjected to excessive strain. In addition, every position of the throttle

lever has a corresponding rev. speed, which is kept within narrow limits by the automatic device in all flying conditions, including

diving.

Disabling the Luftschrauben Verstellautomatik

The automatik device may be disabled by the toggle switch on the left fuselage wall. With the automatik device disabled, the

propeller is fully controllable by the thumb switch on the throttle.

Economical Flight

In the case of economical flight, where lower revs are desirable for each throttle setting in order to increase the range, the automatic

device can be switched off and the neccessary changes in the airscrew pitch carried out by the thumb switch.
